Brian Davis / Dredge Research Collaborative: A More Common Ground
Brian Davis is an Associate Professor in the Landscape Architecture Department at the University of Virginia School of Architecture. He is a registered landscape architect and member of the Dredge Research Collaborative. His work focuses on ports, rivers, and cities, and especially their formal interrelations through time. This interest in landscape form is anchored by the realization that it can be both indicative of past processes and values as well as future performance. In his work landscape is understood as both a foundation for and an active part of democratic society.
The Dredge Research Collaborative program brings together practitioners, community members, academics, regulatory and policy officials, and industry representatives to advance shared conceptual frameworks, planning priorities, and applied landscape strategies for resilient dredged material management in the Baltimore region. Through cross-disciplinary collaboration, research methods, and direct stakeholder engagement the program provides a lens through which to explore emerging and future landscape infrastructure issues facing port cities and coastal communities.
